Comprised of Kevn Kinney on vocals/guitar and Tim Nielsen on bass/mandolin, along with Jeff Sullivan on drums, Drivin N Cryin's Kosmo Vinyl (The Clash, Sex Pistols, and more) produced (Casino Studio, Atlanta, GA) eponymous 1997 album had a short life on radio, with their cover of John Denver's ""Leaving on a Jet Plane"" getting some airplay in Alabama. Why this album went relatively unnoticed is a mystery. Maybe it was their return to their hometown, independent roots, after having left Geffen Records, that resulted in the album's release with little momentum. What we do know for certain is that Drivin N Cryin stayed true to their sound and who they were here. A little grit, a little roots. Now, 21 years later, the record has a title, new cover art (courtesy of Kosmo Vinyl himself), and momentum.
